REIIsTEK,

The registration for the municipal
election to occur two months hence III
this city, is now going on. It will not
be complete new registration, as some
seem to infer, but more in the nature
of a revision. The old lists will be
taken up and added to or taken from
as the occasion may require. The lists
made up last summer for the August
election are anything but complete;
that is to say, they do not contain any.
thing like the names of those who
possess the qualifications of voters. A
good many, it will be remembered, de-
clined to take the required oath, and
therefore lost their right TO vote. This
was especially the case on the side of
the People, scores of the members
Of that party fatty refusing to
swallow what they regarded as
an offensive and nauseating dose. The
result was the loss to the party of two
OF the five precincts in the city, and q
decidedly close race in third district.
When they saw the outcome of the vot-
ing, many regretted their refusal to
register, and sadly W ished they had not
lost their right to vote at that election.
If the Peoples party members had
registered and voted their full strength,
the Liberals would have had two less
members in the Legislature this winter.
However, It is idle to find fault with the
past. The thing 10 do. is to see that
the occasion for regret does not arise
second time. The Peoples party has
the members to carry every Ward
in the city and to carry them
all with overwhelming majorities.
1t must be borne III mind, however,
that in order to vote a mans name
must be placed on the registration list,
and that it cannot be gotten on to that
list until the would-be voter has sub
scribed to a certain oath which Con
gress has prescribed as q condition pre-
cadent to the right 60 vote. Nor viii it
be we'll if the individual trusts too i'm
plicitly in the asst mptioa that the reg
istration officer will search him out ana |
solicit him to take the oath and acquire |
the right to cast ballot. TIE regis
tTars have never shown wild desire to |
induce Peoples men TO place their
names on the list, and the officials are |
no expected to display greater eager
n ess IN the matter now than on former |
occasions.
1t is to be hoped that men will be pat
riotic enough to register and vote at the |
election. 1t requires but
little time and effort to find the officer
and see that your name appears on the |
REGISTRATION list.

EXCURSION RATES.

The Chamber of Commerce has set
out on some more good work. A letter
which it has addressed to the Union
Pacific and the Denver & Rio Grande
Western Railway Companies appears in
full in this issue of The Herald. The
Chamber asks that Salt Lake be made e
terminal point for excursions during the
year 1885. aid that round trip rate of
$35, from The Missouri river, be estab-
iisheo, ticgets good for four months.
The request is reasonable one, and it
will be to the advantage of the railroad
companies to grant it. Heretofore every
advantage has been given to California.
Rates have been made with the view to
inducing tourists to go to the Pacific,
and enticing emlgrants to settle in the
Golden State. If the railroads have
thought OF Utah they have done nothing
for 1t, If they have known of the exist
ence of Utah they certainly have done
little or nothing to assist in the develop
ment of her resources, and have done less
to attract hither the people and capital
that are needed. Why the two COM
panies named should be more inter
ested il peopling California, which
they do not touch and are not likely to
reach, than in building up this Terri
tory. has never been made plain to
others than the railroad folks them
selves. Population and development
here mean a good deal more to the
railways mentioned than do the same
same things in California. 1t is
in the power of the Q. P,
and the D. & R. g., to create
boom for Salt Lake and al Utah, srd to
increase the permanent population OF
the city and Territory fully twenty
five per cent. in twelve months. The
resources are here for the employment
of ths men and money which the rail-
roads could induce to come by cooper
ating with the Chamber of Commerce
in the matter of advertising and by
offering such reasonable rates Of trans
portstion as are given to other sections.
Il is to be hoped that the railway
companies will fsvorably consider the
reasonable request Of the Chamber, snd
by granting excursion rates induce
tourists TO come here to enjoy our
scenery and climate. and 70 find grand
opportunities for the investment OF
their capital. Only iiliberality and
short-sightedness on the part of the
railroads can prevent Salt Lake becom-
ing one of the popular points in the
ives, the coming season.

Why hurl Acknowledgement and con-
fsca ton, and bad forms of government
right and left, in dealing with it? Is it
not plain case where the remedy is
far worse than the mischief?
Read history; learn the folly Of ccer-
cion, and the dangerous, freedom
stranglirg efforts of the rule that the
end justifies the means.
Consult your hearts. review your ex-
periences among the Latter.day Saints
and see how inhumane is the present
crusade against deserving class OF
citizens.
Do not lend yourselves to the clique
that seeks political control at the sacrl-
fee of truth and justice.

The FsgNcH seem to have learned
wisdom. Thoir sad experiences in the
past have been of such a character that
it is not surprising ifthey have become
somewhat wise. Tie election of Pres.
idept on Saturday, appears to have been
accomplished with the smallest degree
of excitement compatible with the oc-
casion. Ordinarily bloody riots and
perhaps revolution would have fol
lowed the retirement of the head of the
nation. If the new President shall
prove t. be as wise snd capable states
man as his predecessor, the republic
should be pretty firmly established by
the end Of his term.

SAN Francisco is rustIing for the Ma
tional Democratic Convention, and
ought to succeed. In no other city OF
the Union will the delegates be enter
tanned as in the progressive metropolis
of the Pacific; no other city is so well
prepared for their accommodation and
entertainment, and no other city is so
whole-souled and generoL as San Fran
cisco. There is another thing which
ought to have its influence in deciding
the matter. The holding of the con-
vention in San Francisco would do
much towards making California a
Democratic State in the Presidential
election. The people Of the far west
have long felt that neither of The great
political parties showed them the con-
sideration they were entitled to. and
this show of regard on the part of the
National Democratic Convention will
be apt 10 '.capture' the State.

sing some of the operations of the
mammoth monopoly, the Bell Tele-
phone Company, and the exposure will
not have a tendency to induce the
people to submit more complacently to
the fleeing that is being practiced.
The paper shows that the parts of the
instrument furnished by the Bell Com
pany, and for which a. rental of $14 a
year is charged the local exchanges,
CO IS only 80 cents, and therefore, that
the Bell realizes on each instrument g
pro st of over 1,500 per cent. 1t also
explains that the Bell robbers, in order
to conceal the tremendous profits,
watered the stock enormously, and that
for all their alleged investments of
millions of capital they have nothing
but shop and suite OF Offices, and do
not own mile Of wire nor single ex-
change: In addition to the S14 year
rental exacted for each instrument,
they demand and receive from the
local companies operating the ex-
changes, as the price of franchise, a
large slice of the stock, and thus par
ticipate in the profits of the business.

had not attended TO his duty either

train, unless something were done inn

The Franco-s.crman Fronticr.

Col Bureau, who has only recently
retired from the post of professor OF
tactics at Saint yr, has just published
a remarkable account Of the frontiers
Of France from the military point of
view. TIE work completely fulfllls its
title; but what ever interest we may
have in the condition Of the French
frontier toward Spain and Italy is quite
eclipsed by that which we feel in the
strategical position on the borders OF
Alsace- Lorraine and of belgium.
Even the defenses of Paris, TO which
the author devotes two most instruc-
tive chapters, are of secondary impor.
lance compared with the outer lines OF
fortresses, the creation OF which Is
supposed TO have supplied France with
an equivalent for Strasburg and Metz
and the passes Of the Vosges, and IL is
10 this part of the volume that our
attention must be confined at present.
II will help the reader To Judge Of the
work IL we state at once the most
striking conclusions Of The writer.
The first and most significant conclu-
sion is that. contrary TO the general
idea, France is stronger on the north
that is, toward Belgium-tha on
the northeast that is, toward Ger
many, and Col. Bureau shows the cour-
age of his convictions in drawing from
this fact the deduction that there is a
greater probability of France violating
the neutrality OF Belgium than of Ger
many doing so. The second point is
hardly less in opposition to prevalent
opinion. IL Is often said that, when
the great struggle comes, the first cam
paign will be Of defensive character
for the most part. Col. Bureau be-
lieves that it will be eminently a cam
pagn Of attacks; that Gerinanys effort
90 break the French line will be made
in enormous force; and, If successful,
rapidly followed up; while the FIRST
German check will entail French Of
fensive through Belgium or Luxem-
burg on Cologne. The third conclu-
sion is less positive and more profess
sional. He quotes and evidently in
clines TO the opinion expressed by
German experts, that the immensely
increased power of rine-iire tends To
make the strongest Notifications TN.
tenable If the ass ailant employs sufli-
cient masses OF infantry armed with
repeating-rifes and risks heavy loss TO
achieve bis end Col. Bureau antici-
pates that a German attack in this
manner on Toul, and possibly Vcrdun,
will form the first episode OF the war.
The interest of this military treatise
may be measured by these conclusions;
but Col Bureau treats every branch of
his subject with completeness and
scientific impartiality.- James Ga

The young prince is barely 16. He is

is fair, his complexion pale, and his blue

He speaks English perfectly, having had
from his birth an English nurse, to whom
he was deeply attached and for whom he
